Pall SUPRAdisc II Depth Filter Modules with Seitz Media
The Next Generation In Depth Filter Module Technology
Constantly increasing process demands in the Biopharmacuetical industry has
driven Pall Corporation to develop the new SUPRAdisc II depth filter modules. The
SUPRAdisc II design combines the filtration performance of Seitz media and the
structural robustness of interlocking dual drainage plates. This provides the most
robust design available in the market today.
The dual drainage plate design of the SUPRAdisc II modules optimizes the flow
distribution by providing unobstructed process flow. These advancements in module
design also enhance module integrity as well as superior resistance to back pressure
failures of the filter media.
Pall SUPRAdisc II features
• Highest structural robustness due to
dual drainage plates.
◆ Interlocking and welded drainage
plates provide similar structural
integrity as found with most filter
cartridge cage and core assemblies.
• Optimized flow distribution upstream
and downstream of the filter sheets
maximizes filter utilization.
◆ Filter media is less susceptible to
blinding from media to media
contact within the module assembly.
◆ Unobstructed process flow.
• Fully supported filter sheets inhibit the
rupturing of filter media frequently
associated with back pressure.
• Shipping and handling damage is
significantly reduced through the very
same interlocking and welded drainage
plates.
• Highest packing density
minimizes hold up volume.
• SUPRAdisc II modules are steam
sterilizable at 125 °C (257 °F) for 30
minutes.
• All plastic components used in
construction meet the specifications
for the biological test listed in the
current version of the USP Class VI
121 °C.
• SUPRAdisc II modules and all their
components are fully traceable by
serial number.
The filter sheets meet the specifications
set forth in the US Code of Federal
Regulations Title 21, parts 177.2260 e, f, g,
h, i, j, k, l. The materials for all plastic
components are listed in US Code of
Federal Regulations Title 21, part 177.1520.
With regard to food law conformity, the
manufacture of depth filter sheets is also
subject to ongoing analysis by the German
ISEGA Forschungs- und Untersuchungsgesellschaft
mbH, Aschaffenburg.
